I know that this weekend I will be blogging about my children. I know this weekend I will be blogging about my mother and my grandmothers. It is afterall, Mother’s Day Weekend! So this would be the weekend to write those posts.
However, I was looking through some photos in my Facebook and came across this one. I am going to take a moment and just sit and look at this photo. I have almost too many memories going through my head to even write them down. So numerous!
I am the little girl on the Shetland Pony, wearing the red sweater! I am not sure how old I am, perhaps 8. We spent summers in Quebec with my grandparents. My aunt was close to our age and she had a few horses! That is my summer memory! Getting up bright and early to spend the day riding and hanging out in the barn!
I sat and looked at that photo for over 5 minutes. I have to be a little careful not to think too much, or I will get emotional. I have the personality of wanting to turn back time, I want to so many times go back to my childhood. Or, I also would at any moment go back in time to when my children were little. All those memories I treasure, and will treasure forever!
I think I will dream of those days tonight as I sleep.
